Home Assistant and Dehumidifier

Last Updated or created 2025-01-06

A while ago, I bought a small Dehumidifier for my wine cellar.
I liked it a lot, so I bought another for our bedroom.

I saw some posts about people asking which Dehumidifier is supported by Home Assistant.
This one is. The “Eeese Otto Dehumidifier”

This works with the LocalTuya integration.

There are many examples how to integrate LocalTuya in HA which can be found easily using a search on the net. So, I’m not going to explain that.

I could not find a configuration example, that’s why I’ll post that part here.

Pre config:

  • Install App on phone to connect Tuya device to cloud (one time only)
    You need this to extract the localkey
  • Add a developer account to https://eu.platform.tuya.com/
    (Enable devices and change from Read to Control)
    (Get localkey from API Explorer, here is also a hint to be found about the entities)
    See below pictures
  • Install LocalTuya to HA
End result after config
